Samson and Delilah Part 2

It was kinda funny when I read somewhere that quoted Rafa as saying we should have score more goals when leading 5-0 with 20 minutes to go against 10 men Villa.

He has grounds to make a statement like that. Goal difference could make a difference should the contest goes to the wire.
As a loyalist, I concur with him. 100%.

But, deeply we know it's not gonna happen if somebody like this.........

enters the field. Sort of anti climax.

See, we led Real 4-0 and he entered the field. Nothing happened.

Then,when we were leading Villa by 5, against 10 limping men, 20 minutes to go and still nothing happened. The tempo went down immediately as if you're switching the lights off.
I guess Rafa sent him on to replace tired legs not to kill off the excitement but Lucas is a player who does nothing but walks with the ball. No sense of urgency from him.

And Rafa expects the earth to shakes violently when he sent Lucas on? Baffling.....

I admit taking occasional potshots at Lucas while we are winning is a non conformity to the rules. See, it's an extension to the word 'anti climax' if you find it anti climatic. That's exactly how I felt in the wee hours of a Monday morning or any other late games. You sacrificed your sleep and everything else but to be served poorly in front of the telly deserves some retaliation.

And Rafa was wondering why we did not score more goal after he sent Lucas on. Baffling again....

Maybe he's a Samson after all. We all know what happened to Samson after somebody cut his hair.
